@plantswithkrystal: Moving wasn’t an option yet so the big chop had to happen. Air layering is a method of propagating stems still attached to the mother plant. I cut a slit in a bag with the sphagnum moss/perlite to keep the nodes in contact with the moss and kept damp. A cutting of this size could take a longer time to root or you may find you’ll lose leaves while the cutting is trying to grow new roots. You could chose to score the node before adding the moss (it may take faster to rooting) but l decided to leave as is and it was a success! Taking this cutting, when I repotted it, I added it back into its pot so it could live its best bushy life with the rest of its family. Don’t be afraid to chop plants, it helps create a fuller plant in the long run.
Me with my very first Monstera sitting in the living room….. what’s the future going to look for me (brand new plant girlie with 5 plants total…. Wish me the best of luck!)

Mi monstera sacando hojas más pequeñas que la anterior y de paso se le entristece la única de ver, me di por vendida y no puedo ser una monstera mom, me paso a las calatheas y alocasia e tenido mejor suerte.
